}}'''"While I'm Still Here"''' is the thirteenth track on the 2013 release ''[[Hesitation Marks]]''. It is sometimes referred to by its acronym '''WISH,''' though this may be confused with "[[Wish (song)|Wish]]".
===While I'm Still Here (Breyer P-Orridge 'Howler' Remix)===
This remix contains dialog snippets of Genesis and Lady Jaye Breyer P-Orridge. It begins with the sound of Howler Monkeys at the LA Zoo, which plays throughout the track. Quarter note kicks replace the staccato beat of the original version. An instrumentally minimalistic track, other notable sound effects include a Tibetan Thighbone Trumpet which sounds in the second verse. Unofficial transcription: Beginning (probably spoken by Lady Jaye Breyer P-Orridge):
I'm, I'm limited by,
by time, by gravity.
that I've ever dreamed of being.
Middle section (probably spoken by Genesis Breyer P-Orridge):
We do not believe in human feelings,
nor in human senses,
This is a preset world, there are no secrets.
Ending (probably spoken by Lady Jaye Breyer P-Orridge):
I feel as though I found my soulmate.
Uhm I never feel, I never feel alone or lonely,

While I'm still here

Always were, yeah
Even then
